Sterlking rises to 9-week high, according to reports from pro-Brexit conservatives supporting the Brexit deal

GBPUSD rises above 1.2900 after pro-Brexit Conservative reports in support of the Brexit Agreement by Theresa May were put to parliament vote on Tuesday,

The GBP / USD is trading above 1.2900 for the first time since 22nd November last year.

The GBP / USD is down 0.6% from the day after reports that influential Brexit members of the Conservative Party won the Brexit deal the day before the House of Commons vote on the Brexit deal tomorrow, January 15 , went well.

Influential conservative party members said they would "vote tomorrow with Theresa May and the government," unless Hilary Benn withdraws his amendment that would rule out a no-deal Brexit.
